OU Residency in Clinical Neuropsychology

The OU College of Medicine Residency in Clinical Neuropsychology is an APA-accredited two-year specialty training program that includes didactic, clinical, and research activities.  The program conforms to the Houston Conference Guidelines for Training in Clinical Neuropsychology. Updates to the program curriculum are anticipated in the future, as the Minnesota Conference Training Guidelines are endorsed and adopted by professional organizations in neuropsychology (e.g., APPCN, AACN, SCN, etc.). It is also a member of APPIC. The program currently has two full-time resident positions that are funded by OU Health. The faculty includes 6 full-time neuropsychologists. Four of the 6 neuropsychologists are Board Certified in Clinical Neuropsychology.

We have 2 positions in the Residency in Neuropsychology with an adult emphasis. We will be recruiting for one (1) position for the 2026 Academic year (APPCN Match #950). 

The Residency in Neuropsychology is one of the oldest and most established training programs in the country. Our first Resident graduated in 1979. Approximately 80% of graduates of this program have achieved diplomate status from the American Board of Professional Psychology. Residents are provided with exposure to training opportunities across a vast patient population and a range of settings. In addition, the program feels it is necessary to focus on belonging and inclusion across clinical, research, didactic, and supervisory experiences within the residency, to ensure a greater appreciation and understanding of patients with cultural differences than the provider.
